[PATCH] zero rt_cache_stat statistics at init

[Martin Josefsson <gandalf@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I'm running 2.5.58-mm1 with slab-debugging enabled and noticed this in
/proc/net/rt_cache_stat (long line):

000000ae  5b61f6cf 5ab13072 5a5a5a5a 5a5a5a5a 5a5d0c9a 5a5a5a7f 5a5a5aa6  
5a61e025 5a5a961a 5a5a5aea 5a5a5a5a 5a5a5a5a 5a5a5a5a 5a5a5a5a

Here's a patch against 2.5.58(-mm1) to memset() it at init, also
includes a whitespace change to conform to the other sizeof's in
ip_rt_init():

Never argue with an idiot. They drag you down to their level, then beat you
